EMU's Historic Preservation Program is among the largest graduate programs in Historic Preservation in the United States. Certified by the National Council for Preservation Education, the Master of Science in historic preservation (36 hours) offers concentrations in preservation planning and administration; heritage interpretation and museum practice; and recording, documentation and digital cultural heritage. The program also offers a 12-hour graduate certificate in historic preservation and an undergraduate minor in historic preservation.

The Historic Preservation Program was founded in 1979 in the Department of Geography and Geology as an outgrowth of cultural geography and its concern for common landscapes, vernacular architecture and practical application. As cohorts of the only historic preservation program embedded in geography, students learn to document, preserve and interpret historic structures, objects and places within the context of their cultural landscape setting.

The curriculum reflects the evolving nature of historic preservation theory and practice in the United States and abroad, and an applied approach has remained paramount. Students gain a range of practical experiences, including most forms of preservation documentation, while addressing the real needs of local communities. In this way, the program prepares students for professional service in the fields of preservation planning, historical administration, heritage interpretation and cultural resource management. Utilizing fellowships, internships and partnerships with numerous educational, and local, regional and national agencies and organizations, the program produces professionals who become leaders in the field and who improve the awareness and effectiveness of historic preservation worldwide.
